Library Journal Review

Petrozzo, a technology expert and principal at Morgan Stanley Dean Witter & Co., provides managers with a realistic picture of current and emerging information technology (IT). With narration by Meredith MacRae and others, this book focuses on the integration of IT in key processes, administration, the total cost of ownership of IT, how to use and manage IT tools, and navigating across the shifting waves of never-ending upgrades. Real-world examples of stellar companies making the best of this very expensive component of business add value to this useful tool. The program is targeted to CEOs of small to medium-sized businesses struggling to find a way to assure their precious capital is most wisely invested in information resources. As the idea of electronic commerce rapidly moves from an option to a mandate, many CEOs will find the guidelines and strategies here valuable in better understanding IT and how to make it suit their long-term bottom-line goals. Highly recommended for all public libraries.ÄDale Farris, Groves, TX (c) Copyright 2010. Library Journals LLC, a wholly owned subsidiary of Media Source, Inc. No redistribution permitted.
